Wow, I didn't think young guns would have that good of taste in music!
MTV doesn't exactly reflect the tastes of the youngsters these days.:dirol:
 
"Home and Dry" is one of my all time favorite Gerry Rafferty songs, right up there with Sniff-N-the Tears song "Drivers seat"

Not too often do you see anybody list Gerry Rafferty.

That's cool with me, I like Disco. I like the Bee Gees, Van Morrison did a disco song called Wavelength it was pretty cool, I like Kiss's attempt at disco,
I was made for lovin you baby. Most Die hard Kiss fans hate that tune.:crazy:
 
man I could make a long list, but none of them are listened to in the TTA haha. I can't stand the stock stereo in the car so I never turn it on and instead just listen to the soothing sound of the exhaust.

But in my Mazda I like listening to a wide range many you'll recognize some you won't:

Eagles
Pink Floyd
Chicago
Dave Matthews Band
Umphreys McGee
Forigner
Allman Brothers
Buddy Guy
John Mayer
Kansas
Eric Clapton
Gov't Mule
Victor Wooten
Tool
Nonpoint
Pantera

so yeah I listen to a wide variety, overally I enjoy listening to talent and stuff that is complex. Particularly I like listening to live stuff from bands with enough talent that they improvise a lot of stuff during the show so every concert is like listening to a new CD.
 
Don't forget Queen "I wan't it all" That song debut in the spring of '89. I remember hearing that song 2-3 times a day on the local rock station while my mom or dad would chauffeur me to the mall or various places in the TTA. I remember the first time I got in to drive the car, after my mom signed the title over to me in '94, I put Queen "The Miracle" in the tape deck and played that song. Each one of my birds had their own song , My "88 Formula 350 was black on black, so when ever I went out in it, I would blast AC/DC "Back in Black" I have to find one for my new Ram 1500. A little aside, Queen had a disco album as well "Hot space" 1980 The only good songs off that were "Under Pressure" and "Action this day":)
 
I havent had a tape in like 15 years.......Its prolly been 4 years since I bought a CD as well since Sirius came out. I wont listen to music in the car anyway.... Just the exhaust notes!!

Theres lots of good taste in music across the board here. I listen to everything but classical and country. Not alot of rap but but I dont mind 2pac and eminem once in a while.
 
Queen's The show must go on was a cool tune. Oh yeah, a few more...

Pearl Jam
Allman Brothers
Bob Segar
Muse
Minus the Bear
Elvis
ZZ-Top
The Firm
Styx
Little River band
Johnny Cash
Buck Owens
Dwight Yokham
Joe Jackson (He did "steppin Out" and "Is she really goin out with him?"
Stray Cats
The Fabulous Thunderbirds
Bill Haley and The Comets
Buddy Holly and the Crickets
Billy Joel
Duran Duran
Bonaham

Don't forget Slade:cool1: The original "Mama weer all crazee now" and "C'mon feel the noise" They were the influence for somany bands, including Kiss, Queen, Def Lepard. Also another cool 80's hair band KIX (blow my fuse) and Trixter as well. I think trixter Was early 90's because their hit came out when I was in 11th grade in '91.

Oh yeah, You forgot what band that was influenced by "C'mon Feel the Noise" Quiet Riot! They were pretty good, and the bass player Rudy Sarzo had a brother who started a band called Hurrican, they had a song called "I'm on to you". I remember Trixter! I saw them open for Warrant, who opened for Poison.
